The Psychology of Denial

Despite conclusive evidence, some people deny the ongoing climate catastrophe. Why do they do this?

(TASMANIA, Aust.) - If you terrorise a child out of taking action to change its circumstances for the better (for example, to get out of a situation in which it is suffering the violence of a parent), then that same terror that stopped it changing its behaviour will also cause the child to now unconsciously delude itself that there is nothing wrong.

Missiles Over Istanbul? Or Just Knock-Out-Their-Eyes Tear Gas?

The US and NATO should be answerable to the entire world, not just to themselves.
